I should really subtitle this “part 1,” to fit into my established idiom of starting what’s meant to be a series and then letting the follow-ons stack up like cordwood in the Drafts folder. It’s worked well so far. I’m looking at several of them now … they seem so happy….
ANNYWAY, what I actually wanted to say is that I’ve got kind of an “ask.” I’m running an online survey as part of my PhD research, and I’d really be grateful if you’d give it a try. It’s about fonts; what you do is look at text samples and mark any stuff that looks bad. It’s designed to be something that you could finish entirely in less than half an hour (if you do all five samples), but you can do fewer if you want.
If you’re game and want to jump at it, the survey site is letter.fit — please go for it, and thanks!

The gist of this is that we want to collect responses from as wide a variety of readers as we can. It’s not about right answers or wrong answers. I’d love it if you’d give it a go and maybe spread the word, but if you don’t, that’s totally cool.
Just to be less self-promotey (although I certainly don’t reap any profit from it) for the unintrigued, and also to make for a more informative blog-read, I’ll say a tad more about what the survey does and why it’s a question. My apologies if you’ve listened to this song & dance twice….
